Key Takeaways

  • Introduces Philippines’ first fully transparent live casino studio to enhance trust
  • Features glass surfaces, HD streaming, and Filipino-themed content for mobile players
  • Aims to set new standards for regulated, responsible phone-centric live gaming in the market

It aims to close the trust gap between remote play and in-person gaming by exposing every dealing, spin and shuffle to viewers. 

According to local reporting, the PAGCOR-licensed setup combines a glass play surface with a floor-to-ceiling LED backdrop and high-definition streaming optimized for mobile, where more than 80% of local play occurs. 

The initial live suite includes Classic Roulette, Transparent Baccarat and Dragon Tiger, presented to emphasize verifiable action and reduce perceived blind spots.

The launch also comes at a time of shifting dynamics in the Philippine gaming sector. For instance, PAGCOR recently revoked the provisional license for PH Resorts Group’s long-delayed Emerald Bay integrated resort and casino project in Cebu, effectively ending the company’s bid to develop the property after years of delays and financing challenges.

Live casino studio adds to the market

Online gaming figures offsets the Philippine land-based market. megaFUNalo’s endeavor combines the two, creating a more sustainable environment. 

megaFUNalo executive vice president Cyrus Sherafat said, “the glass-table environment and integrated studio are designed specifically to elevate user trust and deliver an immersive experience that hasn’t been seen in this market before.” 

Bloomberry has also bundled free-to-play shows, themed digital titles and real-money options on the platform, a mix that earlier reporting linked to a notable uptick in the company’s share price.

The launch is positioned as a local standard-setter for regulated, phone-centric live gaming, with operators and regulators stressing KYC, responsible-gaming tools and oversight as core to adoption. megaFUNalo plans further Filipino-themed content and broader rollouts as it scales the studio format.
